About Me
I guide children, adolescents, and their families, especially those from previously disadvantaged areas. As an Educational Psychologist, my training helps me uncover unique strengths and foster individual potential. We can explore tailored learning strategies and emotional support to navigate academic or social challenges. My aim is to build confidence and resilience, ensuring young people gain tools to thrive and succeed.
Approach
Experience in underserved communities shapes how I structure sessions: steady, practical and respectful of each family's rhythm. I work from Phuthaditjhaba, offering meetings in English, Sesotho or isiZulu in a calm, school-friendly setting close to where children learn. Sessions move between gentle assessment, hands-on learning tasks and collaborative problem-solving that link school and home, with clear steps to try between meetings. This approach suits learners facing academic hurdles and caregivers who want culturally aware, practical support.
